Monument
Presbytère de Villesèquelande
An old 11th-century building that was part of the village’s former castle, which was destroyed. It was restored in 1991 and has since belonged to the municipality, but traces of Raymond de Villesèquelande’s presence can still be found.

Gastronomy
Le Petit Carcassonnais
This small oval cake, with a texture similar to a sponge cake or a madeleine, reveals subtle flavors of candied orange peel when you taste it. This specialty was created in 1928 by Mr. Gau and was later acquired by the Fuster family, who are currently the sole producers of this delicacy.
Gastronomy
Le Poumpet
A cake originating from Soual and Sémalens, brought to Carcassonne in the 8th century, made with lemon and bergamot. Triangular in shape, it was traditionally made with lard. Today, it is usually made with butter. It has gained great popularity thanks to its blend of lemon, bergamot, and honey added after baking. It is perfect for lemon lovers.
Gastronomy
